What does the QRS wave of the electrocardiogram (ECG) represent? In an ECG or EKG , if the P wave has a shorter duration, what does that mean is happening in the heart? What are the symptoms of atrial tachycardia? Do pathologic Q waves indicate dead myocardial tissue?
Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a dysrhythmia characterized by abrupt onset, regular rate that usually exceeds 150 beats/minute, and lack of identifiable P waves on ECG. SVT is caused by an abnormal circuit that allows a wave of depolarization to r
QRS complexes are very broad (~200ms) — however, unlike with VT most of the broadening is in theterminalportion of the QRS (this can be best appreciated in leads V3-V6 where narrow R waves are followed by massively broad and deep S waves) There are no positive Brugada criteria — in ...

Distinct ECG manifestations of abnormal atrial depolarizations in a “sawtooth appearance.”– These are referred to as flutter waves and are best seen in leads II, III, aVF, and V1–2 . – Common association with a 2:1 or 4:1 AV conduction ratio, although any conduction ratio may be ...
The ECG shows rapid ventricular rhythm with broad QRS complexes. Sometimes it is also possible to observe P waves. Figure 03: SVT Management Urgent treatment may be required depending on the hemodynamic status of the patient. In conditions such as pulmonary edema and hypotension where the patient...
